Do you wave?

Do you wave at other Camaro drivers when you see them on the road?

It's something I did years ago, when I was driving my 1979 (1999 - 2004), and it seemed pretty common between all generations.

I find some Gen 5 drivers doing it now, but with the sheer number I see on the road, I can understand how a large percentage of drivers don't "get".

My only problem is that sometimes, with that high belt line, I can't quite get my arm out quick enough to wave lol.

All the time and even a few nods too. Its the rare younger people that have know idea what your trying to say. They may think your flipping them off cause sometimes I get nothing back. I have even tried to get a few people to put the window down to say "Nice ride". just being friendly

I wave all the time.. Im probably at a 40% wave back rate lol.. I waved at two this week with nothing back and both were women. Ive found that women and younger generations don't really wave. Cosmetically modded to cosmetically modded waves always seem to work though..

If they don't wave back, it is in your best interest to sell the car.

I'm a waving fool. I wave, and I don't expect anything in return.

I'm afraid to wave, because if someone doesn't wave back, I'd have to trade it in for an out of date Vette!
